Moon data dictionary (1/5)
description:
This data set shows a perceptual experiment where subjects were asked
to estimate a size ratio with their head level to the ground and then
with their head elevated (in other words, looking upward). Although
the objects being compared were the same size, almost all subjects
overestimated the relative sizes. The hypothesis to be tested is
whether the overestimation is greater with eyes level than with eyes
elevated. A more detailed description is available at
